Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of Sodium Nitroprusside(SNP) on apoptosis of airway smooth muscle cells(ASMCs) of asthmatic rats in vitro.Methods Ten Wister rats were selected to make the models of asthma.The effect of SNP on the survival rate of asthmatic rat airway smooth muscle cells was detected by MTT method.The apoptosis of cells was detected by TUNEL method and flow cytometry.Results Comparing with asthma group,the survival rate of ASMCs was decreased significantly in SNP plus asthma group by MTT method(P
